It began in a modest three-story town house in the heart of the City of Lancaster over 100 years ago. More than a century later, it spreads over a city block and has satellite facilities located in communities throughout the county. As a not for profit hospital, Lancaster General Hospital continues its mission of providing the best possible healthcare to anyone who needs it, at the lowest possible cost, regardless of the patient’s ability to pay.

As the need for community health and services grows, so does Lancaster General. Science, research and technology have changed the complexity of healthcare, requiring constant upgrades in the quality and delivery of care. The need for philanthropy to maintain superior programs and initiate new projects is greater than ever. The Lancaster General HealthCare Foundation is dedicated to securing the means to continue the tradition of serving the community well into the future.
